Just a quick glance over.

Aggro definition is ambiguous and doesn't explain it at all.

Calc isn't a wow term at all. there is no in-game calculator outside mods.

Gank should be something like 'to kill someone when you have an insurmountable advantage'.

L2Play definition is too specific.

pst definition is wrong (Please Send Tell)

T# definition is inaccurate. (They're tier armor sets, they have to be class specific and have a set for each class, they come from raids)
